Icon Testing via PPO Without App Update
To test icons using Product Page Optimization (PPO), you need to include all icon variants in your app build in advance.
You can do this in Xcode in 3 simple steps:
Add the icon to your project
- Open your project in Xcode.
- Go to the
Assets.xcassets
file. - Right-click →
New App Icon
. - Name the icon, for example,
AppIconAlt1
. - Upload images of all required sizes (Usually, the icon size is 1024x1024 pixels. Xcode will show which exact sizes you need to upload).
Make sure all slots are filled—otherwise, the icon will not be accepted.
Check your project settings
Open the project’s Build Settings
tab and check the following parameters:
Primary App Icon Set Name
→ set toAppIcon
(or your main icon name).Include All App Icon Assets
→ set toYes
(includes all found icons in the build).
The Alternate App Icon Sets
field can be left empty—this is optional.
Build a new version and submit the app for review
- Build the app as usual.
- Submit the new version to the App Store via Xcode or Transporter.
Launch PPO
After publishing the new app version, launch Product Page Optimization.
